Executive Committee

Knowledge Translation + Networking Subcommittee

The Knowledge Translation + Networking Subcommittee works to identify opportunities and engage in activities that enable UTCSP to serve as a seamless conduit for knowledge generation and dissemination. The group creates innovative opportunities for knowledge mobility and implementation science (KMIS) related to pain research and practice—both within UTCSP and across broader networks. It also supports capacity building and training in KMIS, while fostering a diverse and inclusive community through meaningful engagement and outreach.

Research Training Subcommittee

The Research Training Subcommittee, aligned with the UTCSP Strategic Plan, is focused on strengthening the Centre’s research ecosystem. Its work includes maintaining a current research digest of UTCSP scientist members, identifying and prioritizing the recruitment of new scientists, and encouraging interdisciplinary collaboration across fields. The subcommittee also supports the development of exceptional trainees and ensures the Annual Scientific Meeting remains relevant and responsive to member interests.

Education Subcommittee

The Education Subcommittee, as outlined in the UTCSP Strategic Plan (2021–2026), works to enhance the quality and accessibility of chronic pain education across the Centre. This includes supporting the evaluation of educational programs—such as the Interprofessional Curriculum (IPC)—to better understand learning outcomes, identify areas for improvement, and inform future development. The subcommittee also promotes the use of existing educational resources across member institutions and partners, and advances undergraduate interprofessional education through the design and delivery of the IPC.
